Trains to Todmorden

Share this route

Nestled in a deep valley, Todmorden station serves a pretty Pennine village in Calderdale, West Yorkshire. Trains arrive at a simple Yorkshire stone building close to the town centre, where the shops and restaurants are almost exclusively independent - they're ranged along the three main roads that run through town, and which join at a roundabout just downhill from the station.
Todmorden makes a great base for local walks, whether in the surrounding hills or along the banks of the River Calder; a particularly popular route is the walk east to Hebden Bridge, along the Calder and the Rochdale Canal. But it's equally pleasant just exploring the town, with landmarks that include the grand neoclassical town hall, the Grade I listed church and the market hall, which still hosts regular markets both indoors and out.
The town lies midway between Leeds and Manchester, making it a popular base for commuters. Trains reach Leeds in about an hour, and Manchester Victoria in just 25 minutes.

Station details & facilities

Todmorden's main entrance leads straight into a subway beneath the platforms. The first set of steps leads up to platform 1 (towards Manchester), and stairs to platform 2 (towards Leeds) are at the subway's far end. There's also a step-free entrance to platform 1 from the station car park. You'll find the ticket office on platform 1, and - somewhat unusually - a small art gallery next to it. There is currently no step-free access to platform 2.
